Where are the BUCK knives made now? Made in CHINA?

They used to be made in ElCajon (san diego) ca, I was at the 110th year anniversary. The moved North to Washington or Oregon. Even then some of their knives were made in China, usually the cheaper plastic handled knives. The reason they were forced to move? The soaring and uncontrolled electricity costs following Grey Davis (democrat) deregulating the electric costs in the state. Gery Davis was recalled and The Terminator took his job.The environmentalists and forced increases in labor costs of California also factored in the move as well. The move was a loss to the community.

The place where most reasonably priced knives seem to be made these days, CHINA. Have a great day. Stay armed and stay free.

Sorry, I threw away the packaging and it does not say on the knife or handle where it is made. Probably China like everything else...It's a good knife

On one blade is stamped "China." I would doubt seriously if they'd make blades here and send them to China. If, for wherever reason, you want a Buck made in the US, buy the model 301 (pretty sure that's the correct number). Regards, George

No the knife is made in China but its very high quality and well designed for the price.

Hi Sam . Yas, it's made in China. But can't complain, works good for large knives.

I corresponded with the CRKW, and the knife is only made in china...deal breaker for me.

They are made in Taiwan with high carbon German steel. They are great knives. I've had mine for about 2 years and I wouldn't trade them for any other knives.

Made in China. However, I have this knife and it has done well. Saying that, if I had known it was made in China, I would not have purchased it, just on principle.

I no longer have the box this knife came in but as best as I can recall this knife was made in China. Every other knife I have bought from Smith and Wesson was made there so I believe at this point it's reasonable to assume this knife was also made in China. I hope that helps.

China, but it is a good knife. Not many knives made in the US anymore. No one wants to pay the price for a knife made in the US. People want USA knives but want to pay the import price.

Despite having "china" on the blade, it's one of the best knives I've ever owned. Ifor you want to know more, I'd check Kershaws website.

For some reason Amazon wanted me to answer this question but did not have a picture. I am pretty sure Benchmade is made in the USA. My Benchmade is the best knife I own,

The knife is at my Maine home and I'm in Florida, but I believe, for the money, you can't beat a buck. I have different Buck knives here in Florida the handles are all wood so you don't see a tang running to the back of the knives. The biggest reason to buy a Buck is the lifetime guarantee. Like I said, it's one of the best out there.

No, it is a real Buck knife made by Buck in the good old USA.It is a new limited issue of the old discontinued Frontiersman. The workmanship is equal to the original. The blade shape and grind are slightly different from my original pre 1985 Frontiersman. My new Frontiersman is Buck date coded 2012.

These knives are made in the People's Republic of China using german steel. I prefer the Victorinox knives with fibrox handles made in Switzerland.
